    Crowd tomorrow??

    Why is that? Not a dig, just genuinely interested.

    Fans who called for admin

    My ideal scenario would have been that a deal was done on the rent, we avoided admin but that it was made clear to SISU that neither ACL nor Higgs would consider selling them a stake in the Arena. Their only option to get any sort return on their investment would have been either to be steer...

    Afc mercia

    Why would the 20th best supported football team in England (based on historical averages so don't shoot me) need to amalgamate with anyone? Your response to those 'killing the club' is to kill the club and disassociate the new club from the city of Coventry entirely? Apart from all that it's a...

    3 tickets for Monday

    No, but short of driving to Walsall tomorrow no way of getting tickets. They did briefly go back on sale last night on ccfcshop so at least some will have been able to get them who might otherwise have missed out.

    Well done sisu

    In 10 years we never made the top 6 once (and that is quite hard to do), and many people were OK with that and expected it and always found an excuse for it. During that time many teams with smaller gates (sometimes much smaller), and smaller playing budgets, managed a top 6 finish and some...

    This from a Crewe fan: It's disgraceful Only 10 points? Coventry had little chance of making the play-offs and with the deduction even then not likely to go down So they start next season with a lot of debt cleared and no real penalty. It should be at least one league demotion or more points...

    Once every 40 years, whats Platini on about ?

    Who says? They don't have Hawk-Eye at Bedworth Cricket Club, or on the Memorial Park tennis courts for that matter. Equally, video replays in Rugby only happen at the top level. Nothing to say you could not install this on the international/European stage and then allow national leagues to...

    Crowd tomorrow??

    True, but as I said in the other thread, the last Good Friday game played at home 2 seasons ago there was an above average crowd. I don't think the GF thing will effect the gate at all, but all the other factors might. Remains to be seen. I certainly hope people don't turn their back on the...

    Coventry vs Doncaster match thread

    Equally, quite a few who can make today who cannot normally. I think we played Scunthorpe at home on Good Friday a couple of seasons back and there were nearly 17K there. Think about 12K today, but a guess.

    Coventry vs Doncaster match thread

    I prefer to take the glass half-full view Otis. Pressure off, so the players might relax. Fans might rally today, and impromptu display of solidarity. I think the atmosphere will be OK and the turnout decent.

    Temporary Season Ticket or Replacement

    Good luck with that! Ticket office closed today, just the window for collections. Depends if they have a computer hooked up and the ability to print duplicates. Don't fancy your chances for today. POTG and try to claim the money back later?

    Full Q and A's

    That is not an answer to anyone who 'complains about the rent'; I'll complain about the rent regardless of what SISU or any new owner say or do about it. Will never change my position on this, the local authority should not be charging its football club anything approaching that amount of money...

    Coventry vs Doncaster match thread

    We're 11/8 today and Doncaster 15/8. That surprises me all things considered. Was going to have a bet on us because think we might sneak a win, but not at those odds. You have to fancy Donny with their away record and our home record, but equally it wouldn't surprise me if with the pressure...

    Well done sisu

    Our expectations have always been too low. Fans show no ambition. When we were in the PL we were always punching above our weight, and in the C'Ship we were always being told by people on forums like this that we had 'no chance' and even before this season people were making dire predictions...

    Crowd tomorrow??

    Have to smile at these dire predictions, particularly the one that said it will be 6000. The predicted crowd today (well what has been advised to police and casino operator etc.) is 11K-12K. So slightly above average then. Remains to be seen, but it is a bank holiday and it is kids for a...

    Deal done for 3 remaining games

    Tactics by who? ACL only agreed to start talking about it at 3pm yesterday. I don't think there were any tactics by either side. It was always going to happen, but they had to wait for the court case and yesterday was the first opportunity they all had to properly talk about it, and that's...

    Pay on the gate at walsall?

    That's right, but having done that, why are they not interested in selling tickets? POTD is one thing, but calling in advance and collecting on the day is easy, plus they'd know exactly how many people were collecting so it would be no hassle and police would know exact numbers in advance. Pay...

    Doncaster Rovers fan in peace

    It's like the Good Friday agreement all over again. Mo Mowlam would have cracked some heads together. Reckon they're just dragging it out while they wait for the pizza to arrive.

    Golden share

    That's right the name change from CCFC Ltd (The) to CCFC Holdings happened in the mid 90s, around the time of the incorporation of CCFC Ltd. Sounds far-fetched but it could simply be something as simple as a clerical error.

    crawley tickets

    Been away ST holders for about 15 years I think. Club basically just automatically take payment and send tickets out in post.
